Syria Reports Nine Fatalities in Latest Israeli Bombing Attack

In Syria, loud explosions were heard Wednesday and local media reported bombs at a military base near Damascus, killing nine people, including an Iranian general.

A Syrian military source was quoted on Syrian television as saying that anti-aircraft systems of the Assad army intercepted Israeli missiles from Israeli Air Force planes.

Israel did not address the Syrian claims that came in light of the IDF’s directive to open shelters in the Golan Heights after “unusual movements” of Iranian forces were identified in Syria.

On Tuesday night, US President Donald Trump announced that his country would abandon the nuclear deal with Iran and expressed concern in Tehran that Tehran intended to use the opportunity to attack Syria.

It should be noted that many Israelis who hold American citizenship received a message from the US Embassy in Israel not to travel to the Golan Heights.
